Construction work on the Jones Branch Connector is set to finish this spring.
The bridge over I-495 connects the North Central and Tysons East neighborhoods and is undergoing a $60 million project that will add two travel lanes and on-street bike lanes in each direction.
The two travel lanes in each direction have opened already, Mike Murphy, a Virginia Department of Transportation spokesperson, told Tysons Reporter.
Now, the bike lanes and sidewalks are left.
“Weather permitting, the bicycle lanes and sidewalks will open to traffic within the next couple months,” Murphy told Tysons Reporter.
The project is still on track for spring 2020 completion, Murphy said.
